1966 Map of Samuelson Ranch

About this map

Custer National Forest borders the western edge of this Powder River County landscape, where the terrain shifts from timbered breaks into a complex network of drainage basins. The ranching economy of the mid-1960s is centered on namesake landmarks like the Samuelson Ranch and essential water sources such as Cain Spring and Manning Spring. The southeastern portion of the map is defined by the winding course of Pumpkin Creek, which is fed by numerous seasonal tributaries including Titus Creek and Winter Gulch. Evidence of local infrastructure and community life is anchored by the Camps Pass Sch, situated along an unimproved road near a Gravel Pit. This survey captures a specific era of high-plains land use, where scattered wells and small creeks like Short Creek and Sixmile Creek supported isolated ranching operations across the rolling Montana prairie.
